Electric gates or automatic gates are one of our most popular requests, and our skilled team of fabricators and automation engineers has the experience to deliver every type. As electric gate manufacturers, we handle the whole project in-house, from groundworks and fabrication through to installation and commissioning. We design, manufacture and install electric gates for both homes and businesses.
Every entrance is different, so every gate we build is made to order. We manufacture and install bi-folding gates, single swing gates, pairs of swing gates, cantilever sliding gates, tracked sliding gates and double tracked sliding gates that meet in the middle of the driveway. At the survey stage we assess your ground conditions and the space available, then recommend the most suitable gate configuration and automation system for your new entrance or driveway gates.
The right choice usually comes down to the space you have. Swing gates suit a level opening with room for the gates to arc inwards or outwards, and give a classic, symmetrical look. Sliding gates including cantilever systems that clear the ground entirely and tracked systems that run on a rail are ideal where space is tight, the driveway slopes, or you need to span a wide opening. We’ll talk you through the options during your survey and recommend the set-up that works best for your entrance.
Electric driveway gates give you security and privacy at the touch of a button, with the convenience of opening from your car without stepping outside. Whether you’re after a clean, contemporary design or a more traditional style, we build automated driveway gates to suit your home, your entrance and your budget each one engineered to open smoothly and reliably, day in, day out.
We also design and install electric gates for commercial and industrial premises, from security gates for yards, car parks and access points to heavy-duty cantilever sliding gates built for constant use. Whatever the site, we’ll specify a gate and automation system that’s up to the job.
Behind every smooth-running gate is the right automation. We fit reliable motor systems matched precisely to the size and weight of your gates, and we can integrate keypads, intercoms, remote fobs and free-to-exit loops so you control access exactly how you want it.
As a GateSafe-approved company, we make sure the specification we provide for every gate is compliant and as safe as possible. When gates open and close automatically they are effectively a machine, so we have a duty of care to protect any trapping points, crush zones and dragging points with safety equipment such as resistive photocells, safety edges and finger guards. The design of the gate matters just as much, which is why we always ‘over-engineer’ our gates, hinge posts and running gear, so they’re more than capable of performing at their best for years to come.
If your existing electric gates need servicing, maintenance or repair, we can help with that too.
Established in 2020, our team brings over 50 years’ combined fabrication and installation experience. Everything is designed and made in-house, and our live pricing policy means you receive an accurate, personalised quote rather than a vague estimate, so you know exactly where you stand from the outset.

Every set of gates is custom-built to your entrance, so the price depends on the size, style, materials and automation system you choose. Rather than give a one-size-fits-all figure, we operate a live pricing policy, we survey your entrance and provide an accurate, personalised quote for your project.
It largely depends on your space. Swing gates need room to open in an arc, while sliding gates (tracked or cantilever) are better suited to tight, sloping or wide entrances. We’ll recommend the best option for your driveway during the survey.
In many cases, yes, suitable existing gates can be fitted with automation. Get in touch and we’ll assess whether your gates are a good candidate.
Yes. As a GateSafe-approved company, we design and install every gate to be compliant and as safe as possible, protecting trapping points, crush zones and dragging points with the appropriate safety equipment.
